Kafka

The Kafka connector integrates seamlessly with Apache Kafka, enabling efficient data streaming and event processing. It offers robust capabilities for secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange.

Authentication

Before you begin integration, ensure you have the following information:

• Connection Name: Choose a meaningful name for your connection. This name helps you identify the connection within your application or integration settings. It could be something descriptive like "MyAppKafkaIntegration".

• Bootstrap Server URLs: Broker server URLs separated by a comma (","). Eg: kafka-broker-001:9092,kafka-broker-002:9092

• Endpoint(Deprecated): The Kafka brokers' IP address or DNS name.

• Port Number(Depracated): The port on which your Kafka server listens for connections. Default value: 9094.

• Database Username: The authenticated user with the permissions to read tables in your database.

• Database Password: The password for the database user.

• Topic Prefix: The prefix to filter topics by. Leave blank to fetch all topics.

• Properties: Kafka connections often require advanced configurations through key-value pairs to tailor the connection to specific security protocols and operational needs. These properties can be set here.

  • Key: The property key. Kafka-specific configuration options can be set here. Example: “sasl.mechanism”.

  • Value: The value for the specified property key. Example: “PLAIN”.

• SSL Secure: Enable this option to Connect over an SSL-encrypted connection.

• Client Certificate: Obtain a valid client certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). This certificate authenticates your client to the database server.

• SSL Certificate Key: This private key corresponds to your client certificate.

• Server Certificate: Obtain the database server's SSL certificate. This certificate verifies the server's identity to your client. Often provided by your database administrator or hosting service.
